Caption: Former CIA Director John A. McCone flatly denied Wednesday any knowledge of an agency plot to assassinate Cuban Premier Fidel Castro or any other foreign official. ?To my knowledge, there?s nothing that was brought to my attention that involves any attempt against Castro or any other person during my tenure of office,? said McCone.
